Theme, and tribute to Jim G.
Posted by Jeanne on April 10, 2026, 2:44 pm
I didn't put two and two together until I read Jim's obituary in the link that Johanna kindly posted. When it mentioned that he had worked for Ashton Drake I realized he must be the Jim G. who did the hairstyle on my OOAK Luminescence Adele. According to my notes from when I bought the doll from him in 2006, this was a hairstyle that he originally created for Blue Fox Gene who was sold by Ashton Drake back then. It's a wonderfully intricate and unique style, and it looks as fresh today as the day I got her from him. The fashion is OOAK by Cindy.
And here's a link showing a picture of the original Gene with this hairstyle from Ma Petite's Flickr album:
